IN WHAT appears to be a case of the blind leading the blind, Charlie Sheen has declared a desire to become Lindsay Lohan's mentor.

And that doesn’t mean he intends sharing his top ‘how-to’ tips on substance abuse, aggression and womanising.

Sheen, 47, told celebrity site TMZ: “She can continue to hang out with her dress shredding club buddies, or turn to me for some advice from a guy who's been down the road as well as every other side trail on the journey."

Sheen says he feels a kinship with the 26-year-old actress, adding the pair have a purely platonic relationship. "I love her, I respect her, and I've never laid a finger on her that wasn't on film. How ya like me now, America?"

Sheen and Lohan became friendly while working on a shared scene in Scary Movie 5. Sheen soon demonstrated his willingness to act as a knight in shining armour where Lohan is concerned, writing her a cheque for $100,000 to ease her tax problems.

She is more likely to listen to Sheen than some therapist. At least Sheen has history and knows what he is talking about.
